Benefit from a fixed commodity rate while retaining the versatility of paying for the non-commodity elements of your bill ‘at cost’ .

Fixed: Commodity provides the ideal solution to fixing energy prices for the duration of your contract, while still benefiting from the ‘at cost’ option for all non-commodity charges. A comprehensive range of contract extras is also included as standard.

Energy prices can be volatile – so securing them upfront at the start of a supply contract can help you to better forecast and remain within your budget. But if you are still willing to risk some unpredictability in return for cheaper overall costs, then Fixed: Commodity may provide the solution.

Fixed: Commodity allows you to pay a fixed unit cost for your electricity or gas supply for the duration of your contract. But the additional charges added to bills for non-commodity elements are ‘passed through’ at cost.

These include government environmental levies such as the Renewables Obligation and Feed in Tariff, along with third-party network charges for energy distribution and managing the grid. While these charges can vary against forecast, you are guaranteed to only pay the actual cost, with no added risk premium.

We can provide a full list of non-commodity charges, along with the forecasted costs for your contract duration. Some elements are also set in advance, so you can be certain of what you’ll be paying upfront.

Fix the commodity costs of your electricity bill, along with your selection of key non-commodity costs.

Fixed: Choice allows you to fix the commodity, and your selection of key non-commodity elements of your bill according to risk appetite. You can be sure of budget certainty on these fixed costs, whilst still benefiting from the ‘at cost’ option for remaining non-commodity charges.

Today’s energy bills contain many unpredictable costs – from commodity prices that can change hourly to transportation and network charges that are influenced by a range of variables. There are also up to 16 different government environmental taxes that aren’t fixed or consistent.

Fixed: Choice allows you to create a bespoke electricity contract according to your risk appetite. Beginning with agreeing a fixed unit cost for your electricity for the duration of your contract, your account manager will then work with you to set your selection of key non-commodity costs to either a fixed constant rate, or to ‘at cost’ pass through.

Additional costs are clearly stated upfront – such as VAT, and the Climate Change Levy, as applicable to your business. These have to still be charged separately at cost each month as a government-mandated requirement, but we will provide full details upfront to ensure complete transparency. The only thing we can’t predict are where regulations impose new costs on us, but we will always communicate these new costs as far in advance as possible, to support your forecasting.

The end result is an electricity contract where we guarantee to never reconcile any of the costs that we have agreed are fixed, whilst retaining the benefits of paying ‘at cost’ for the remaining passed through non-commodity costs.

Electricity customers can also fix a new Contracts for Difference (CfD) cost which is part of Electricity Market Reform (EMR).

Fixed: Certainty securely fix both the commodity and the key non-commodity elements of your bill upfront. To give you budgetary certainty for the duration of your contract.

An all-inclusive power or gas contract that’s simple, predicable and transparent

Securing the best deal for your electricity or gas supply shouldn’t be complicated. Yet, today’s energy bills contain so many unpredictable costs – from commodity prices that can change hourly to transportation and network charges that are influenced by a range of variables. There are also up to 16 different government environmental taxes that aren’t fixed or consistent, and upcoming costs related to the government’s Electricity Market Reform.

When you want budgetary certainty and need to know what you are paying for energy, predictability is key. Many businesses also don’t have the time to oversee all the variable factors that more flexible supply contracts contain.

Fixed: Certainty from npower provides a solution to securing a clear and transparent way to buy electricity or gas that’s also easy to manage.

Not only is the price of the actual commodity fixed for your contract duration, but the majority of the additional elements – from third party network charges and meter-related fees to the ever-expanding range of environmental levies – are also fixed. For electricity customers, with the Electricity Market Reform starting to take shape, we’ve also taken into consideration the immediate costs of Contracts for Difference. So you pay an inclusive unit price that’s clear at the point you sign your contract, and remains the same throughout your contract duration.

The only additional costs are clearly stated upfront – such as VAT, and the Climate Change Levy on electricity bills, as applicable to your business. These have to be charged separately at cost each month as a government-mandated requirement, but we will provide full details upfront to ensure complete transparency. The only thing we can’t predict are where regulations impose new costs on us, but we will always communicate these new costs as far in advance as possible, to support your forecasting.

The end result is a fixed contract where we guarantee to never reconcile any of the costs that we have agreed are fixed.
